No act is of itself either good or bad. Only its place in the order of things makes it good or bad.

I find that people... very few people think that what they're doing is bad, and usually the people who think what they're doing is bad it has more to do with guilt.

Very few people do bad things because they're bad. They generally do bad things because they think they're the right thing to do, but they're misplaced.

The fact is, as actors, everything we do, bad or good, is a contribution. To me, it is a positive thing to give people as wide a range of human behavior with some sense of understanding of that behavior or some clue to it.

As we look around, it's very clear that in this world people do outrageous things to one another all of the time. It's not that these qualities or actions make us bad people, but they bring tremendous suffering if we don't know how to work with them.

It's easy to show terrible people's behavior on screen, and we all just kind of nod and go, 'Isn't that terrible.' It's more interesting when you can show terrible behavior in the interest of something good.

I will overlook bad behavior if I know that people's intentions are good. I have this belief that people really can do good things and that people want to be good.

People wince when something is in bad taste. They laugh when it's funny. If it's too dirty or wrong, they won't laugh. But if it's a big, dirty, smart, funny laugh, they love it.

Anytime someone can beat the acting out of someone else, I think it's a wonderful thing.

I think people like it when you have a bit of personality.
